Have you had moments like this?

Admin work getting you down?

Are you struggling with some aspects of your business (or personal life) and find yourself left with no time to spend with family, friends or just doing your own thing?

Whether you are a sole trader, own a small business or are in a professional role, time management can be difficult...and that's where I can help.

Maybe you have reached the point where you need help but don't have enough work to employ someone permanently, or you simply don't want the hassle of employing anyone.

Maybe you have had a temporary 'crisis' and just need some short term help to get you through, and to help you keep track of things.

Maybe you just need help to organise your work / life balance.

The way we work has changed now, and a Virtual Assistant could help you become more efficient and ultimately save you time and money, by having admin assistance when you need it most and by giving you a professional service, tailored to suit you and your business.

I work remotely from my own office based in South Yorkshire, so you don't even have to find extra space.

I can offer a friendly, efficient, confidential and reliable service.

About Me

Hi, I'm Vanessa, thanks for visiting my site today and this is a little bit about me.

I have over 36 years' experience in a variety of admin and business roles. My first admin role was working for a national corporation at their offices in Sheffield. As my children grew up, I started working part-time in the office at the family business, a sameday Courier service. Over the years this role increased to becoming joint manager and running the business which included payroll, budgeting, accounts, staff management, customer service and everything else you can think of!

When the business was sold on, I worked in a similar field for a while, as well as serving as a Magistrate in Sheffield. I then accepted a role working for a local animal charity building it up to the point where, as Branch Manager, I was responsible for all aspects of the branch and also overseeing the day to day running of two charity shops. I also arranged various animal welfare campaigns such as neutering and microchipping and gave financial assistance to people with animals in the local community. I attended regular committee meetings to provide reports for the trustees and ensure minutes were accurately taken. I also completed my OCR Level 5 NVQ in Management & Leadership.

After leaving and taking a short break from employment due to the pandemic, I took a voluntary role working for SSAFA as Divisional Secretary for Sheffield offering assistance to the Armed Forces community, which I still do today. It was while doing this role that I decided to use my skills to start my own business, in order to have more flexibility for myself and to help others improve their working / home life or their business.
